The user said that it seems the developer did not nerf the character’s ability but removed it. The post was answered by several users who have also noticed the changes.

Several days ago, the game developer released the patchnotes for the minor tweaks they have made to the support hero Mercy. Since players were not able to find that there are changes made to Lucio in the patchnotes, they started raising the issue for the developer’s attention.

Fortunately, Jeff Kaplan responded to Meowcenary’s query. According to the game director, the recent change that players have noticed with Lucio especially with the removal of his speed boost in the Wall Jump is just a bug. His reply calmed the players who love Lucio since there is nothing to get worried about the wall-jumping hero. The game’s upcoming #Patch 1.16 is currently on the game’s Public Test Realm and will be released to the live servers on October 10.

Halloween event

Meanwhile, the game’s principal designerGeoff Goodman has already confirmed that the Halloween event will be launched along with the release of Patch 1.16. The event was announced several days ago with Blizzard not giving out any details. However, fans are already speculating that the game could introduce new legendary skins for some of its characters. They are also looking forward to the return of Dr. Junkenstein as part of Junkenstien’s Revenge.

A few days ago, alleged Halloween event skins of Zenyatta, Symmetra, Mei, and Reaper surfaced online. It appears that the advertisement of the game’s upcoming event was uploaded on the social networking site, Facebook ahead of schedule.

During the Summer Games 2017, Blizzard reintroduced the skins from 2016’s summer event and offered it at a much lower price. “Overwatch” players are also hoping that Blizzard would bring last year’s Halloween event skins back and offer it at a discounted price. #Lucio bug
